LiveMatchday live: Burnley v Sheffield Wednesday

Summary

Goalkeeper Matt Gilks and latest signing Stephen Ward make their debuts. The duo are among seven changes that manager Sean Dyche has made from Saturday's narrow defeat at Swansea. Marvin Sordell makes his full debut, while there is a first start for Michael Kightly following his permanent move from Stoke City.

At least there weren't many there to see the humiliation of the top dog east lancs PL side beaten by a Chumpionship team. Ah well! Never mind you can concentrate on getting three points on Saturday.

4,000 to watch you humbled against Sheff Wed's, one of Yorkshire's biggest clubs and a sleeping giant. Didn't "sell out" there either.

Now then, at least Rovers had five and half thousand against little Scunthorpe.

3 games. 3 defeats. Five goal against. 1 goal for. Out of a cup competition. Down by Christmas.

Now that's original AND funny.

Most sensible people know that Burnley had a huge slice of luck getting promoted with that squad last season.

Luck like that can only continue for a short period of time.

Burnley have made the decision to not spend any money this season, the result is a small squad that looks ill-equipped to cope at that level.

For some reason some Clarets think they should be better than Sheffield Wednesday. Quite why I'm not so sure. A massive game against Man Utd on Saturday. Can either side afford to lose?
